    1. It is a Type 2 Medal Signed (this in good condition) the Ribbon is a replacement has a "Linden sheet" this is not common, the "Linden sheet" is seen more often in the Revolutionary Medal (Czech).It is usually not authorized any clip or distitivo the Ribbon Medal of Victory, with the exception of the USA (Battle of staples), Portugal (Buckle and Star),  and the British (MID).

      ... but the reverse shows it's had another use ...

      It came to me from Pakistan, but there must be a tale on how it got there. Was it used as an ID tag for an Indian Army POW in Italy in WW2? Or a tool board tag? Is there any clue in the number under the name - does it match any particular Indian Army regiment or corps?

      In any event, it's an intrigueing addition to the collection, and I'm wondering whether to put it on a ribbon or not. Any suggestions as to it's use?

      Hello Bill.

      It is an interesting piece, I wonder how may have come to Pakistan or India. We will never know !! ..

      I think it should be preserved that same way, just let it rest in a lined box. as I do with my medals without the Ribbon
